NO. if you update to latest oficial htc rom, it will also update ur hboot. u will have problems later on. there is a thread on it.
better update with the latest modaco rom which is based on the latest official htc rom

CWM cancels firmware update

I startet the update one min ago, rebooted and cwm then canceld it saying that the signature was incorrect so it abortet the update..
what to do now ?
What update by what method what file .
Strange to update via CWM .
jje
Did u flash the cwm and what file are u trying to flash(zip, tar, rom or kernel)
I did not do anything via cwm...
I went down to my phone and checked if theres and update avaliable,
it found one and downloaded it and rebooted in order to install it and after the phone was off it opened the packet and startet installing and all of a sudden i landed in cwm saying the packets signature was invalid...
thats what happened
OTA does not work with CWM. There are work-arounds but it's recommended to stay with Kies or Odin to flash new versions.

lol thats a minus for cwm imo... meh... does anybody have a link to a thread providing the latest release ?
whisch one is it btw ? 4.1 jelly bean ?
Here are most of the available firmwares:
http://www.samfirmware.com/
Jellybean isn't out for a couple of months, so it's a bugfix/enhancement release of ICS.

CWM is not designed for Samsung but for Android phones in general. So it cannot support all of the quirks and specialitys of all devices.
Latest CWM and root from dev section is supposed to allow updates OTA.but of course you need to reroot .
Simpler to join XDA and flash stock roms rather than try to mix and match .

yeah, i did so before with my sgs + i already have odin and stuff required for flashing did all before, i would rather flash entire roms than mixng stuff...
so i think i will just wait then till the entire rom gets released.. :>
Yeah, wait for full(rom) update. lfb is latest firmware.lg1 is the the same rom just different modem

I don't know what you mean by 'patch'. If you mean ROM version, then yes... flash the one you like. OTA partial updates are not available.
ti flash via cwm or odin ?

Samfirmware is Odin-only since they are full-Stock firmwares.

if u have a rooted phone, then simply fallow the instruction in the OP of the CM 9.1.0 thread to install the same
and as for 'Kies connection' , No u cannot connect to kies with a custom rom, since it recognises on Stock samsung Firmware

yep very good
the point which make me conflict is installing CM 10.1.3 on official firmware 4.1.2 ( as table i sent you from CM official site it shows firmware 4.2.2 beside CM 10.1.x) because CyanogenMod not change firmware number i think
could you please clear this for me

u need not worry about those version and firmware details
The statement in those cm sites are about installing the correct gapps package for the correct version of cm
It has nothing to do with incompatibility of latest version for our phones
Be rest assured i run android 4.3.1 in my gs2 gt i9100

Now what can we do

Not for the stable branch of magisk. V20.4 should still have that feature if I remember correctly.
